It’s nothing fancy. But at least the chess board and moves fit into the post area. Hopefully, the board will be improved down the line.

New Additions

If you look up at the menu below the header picture, you will see I’ve added a Donate page to allow those idle rich with lots of disposable income to kindly donate to this humble blog.

Now, to the right and scrolling down just a bit you will see a little widget that displays my Gameknot information – plus a link if you feel like joining. I highly recommend this chess site. It’s a variation of correspondence chess. However, instead of writing and mailing a letter with your chess move, you have some days in which to make a single move. Your opponent then has the same number of days to respond. The free version allows up to 12 simultaneous games and has ads. The paid versions give you many more simultaneous games and no ads.
